well macco does prep it beforehand anyway, i've just heard they dont do the best job on it so i was seeing if it would be better if i did it and had them paint it but if you think it's one of those things better left up to them then i quess i'll just leave it as is and have them do it...it's not like it's gonna cost me anything more by having them do it since it's allready included in the paintjob price. thanks for the help
